GDT: 10/17 Sabres (5-1-1) @ Kings (2-4-0), 10:30 PM

Gotcha, maybe that stat is just regular season then?

Probably - but I can assure you we'll likely never see a game like Hasek's donut in triple OT again in our lives. That was one for the ages.

 

[Not Sure]

This is nothing like last night or dealing with a physical aggressive team imo, the sabres just look completely gassed tonight.

They were definitely tired from back to back games, but they've had trouble in other games once the forecheck was turned up. As soon as they start sending two in deep we look flustered and start making mental mistakes. It could be fatigue late in games, it could be a young team learning a new system, it could be score effects, it's likely a mix of things.

Kruger should spend some extra time focusing on this aspect, especially if we want to go anywhere once we make the playoffs. Decision making and vision need to improve so we stop swatting at the puck and giving it right back.
